It's About Time!

Sorry we haven't been blogging much. It looks like Mama just posted on... Thursday?

Yes, warm cocoa is very nice on these cold February days.

The ice we had was unbelievable! I have to check on our piles of ice outside. Good question! Well, here is the answer. Sarah and Sophie were over and we were chipping ice. There were really big humongo pieces and some little. Also, there were some just in between.

Gotta go!

First February Post

It's a wintry day in February. I've just made cocoa for the girls, and since the bookmobile is cancelled, we're not going out again tonight (except to feed the Mad Queen's cat). We had a school delay earlier this week, and now the girls go to sleep each night and wake up every morning hoping for another. Depending on which groundhog you consulted on February 2, no one should be surprised at the weather we've had lately.

We have been very wrapped up in a number of family things in recent weeks and have been neglecting our blog completely. We'll be back soon.

Hello everybody! I wanted to catch you up on everything happening in Tamarron. The first thing is first. This afternoon Mama and I picked up at least 1,000 leaves, not to mention about the hundred packing peanuts that were not ours. The night the wind was howling someone's packing peanuts blew all over the entrance. We waited a couple of days to see if they would pick them up but nothing happened. SO as soon as I had stepped on Kate's foot I agreed that I would come help Mama and Amy Wallace pick up the garbage. I was freezing but I bent over and yet picked up more leaves. I hate leaves. They blew right out of my hands and that meant more chasing and bending. That went on for maybe half an hour before I got the hang of it. I gripped them tightly and stuffed them in the bag. I swung the garbage bag over my shoulder like Santa and carried it down the cul-de-sac to the next house. Then we wanted to head home so that meant a cold journey in my slippers that are really too small. We put away the tools but I lingered behind a little bit for no reason at all. After that I thought I needed M+Ms. We ate dinner and did many dances before I practiced for (can you guess what?) M+Ms ! I played many Etudes (or at least it felt that way!) and finally I get to practice Proverbs for more M+Ms. It has been a night full of sugar and M+Ms . I like that... . Anyway, I have to go. Bye! P.S. I am trying to type longer blogs , can you tell?

Hello!

Dudders is gone and we have gone to see National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets and we are going to see the Golden Compass based on the book by Philip Pullman. I have not read the book though some say it is anti-religious. I don't believe that but I am not saying you can't believe that. You are free to dream what you want and think what you want. That is my point today, do whatever you feel is right even if it makes you look bad to some people. (I am not talking about punching or hurting here, peeps!) You should say what you want to say. It may hurt somebody's feelings but you can apologize, you've done your part in being true to your heart, so that's all you can do. All the other person has to do is accept it. Sorry for all this stuff I rambled on about and it makes me look dumb, but, whatever... Happy 2008!

Hello1

Happy New Year!

I am sure we will have a happy new year with all our new things but I'm sure you will too. I have been trying to get fireworks to be put on this post but I cannot so just picture them as you read this. I also want you to pretend you are here, at this exact moment I will tell you.

You are sitting on green grass clutching a mug of hot chocolate and watching the fireworks burst out into the sky. Counting begins as people are waiting for 2008 to finally come. You whisper to your friend sitting next to you and as you say that, think: I am the luckiest person I know!

Anyway, have happy holidays and keep reading for more excitement. Bye!
